California & Florist

This is a great flower shop! The owners are wonderful, very accommodating! With enough notice, they will make the most amazing arrangements! I like floral arrangements that are unique and they never disappoint! Thank you so much!

As a non-​native Californian in need of a few flower arrangements for Mother’s Day, I discovered California & Florist from friends who are far more knowledgeable in the field of botany than I.
After checking their website to see what type of arrangements they have available, I called the shop earlier in the week to confirm the flowers I wanted to order would be ready the morning of Mother’s Day. The person I spoke with was friendly and told me that there would be no problem.
As promised, the flowers were ready when I arrived and they were gorgeous. I was a little nervous about the size of the arrangements, but was pleased to see each arrangement had, for lack of a better word, «girth.»
I chose arrangements that had different types of flowers and colors for variety sake. California & Florist took it to the next level by adding some (fake) butterflies to each bouquet! Lol. I’ve uploaded a pic for all to enjoy. =P Needless to say, each mom that I dropped these off to was very pleased.
From reviewing other local/​national flower stores, it looks like California & Florist is competitively priced. After seeing the flowers, I am extremely happy with what I paid.
I will continue to use California & Florist in the future even though it’s not very close to where I live or work. They do offer a delivery service for the local area, so if you live nearby you can take advantage of that service.

I ordered an arrangement for my cousins birthday and it was absolutely gorgeous! I am always hesitant to order flowers online, since most are just thrown together in a box and already dead by the time they get to the person or are delivered right at the end of the day. I placed a custom order, so I was a little nervous as to what was going to be in the arrangement. Not only were they delivered early in the day so she could enjoy them, but the flowers were so big and beautiful. Definitely worth every penny!

The people at California & Florist made our wedding more beautiful than we could have ever imagined! We got a referral from a friend (referrals are the best). They gave us so many affordable/​alternative IDEAS and input! This family owned business was wonderful from the first day we emailed them to the first time we met with them. They were very creative and flexible with all of our ideas and was able to provide the look and design we wanted within our budget. They were also very reasonable and offered suggestions about how to make the flowers more affordable. They’re so wonderful and so easy to work with! They were always very responsive and willing to answer any questions that we had. We don’t know anything about flowers so we they were able to give us an idea of what arrangements we might need. About a month before our wedding, we printed out all of the floral arrangements we pulled off of of pinterest (wedding bouquet, bridesmaids bouquet, corsages, boutonnière, flowers for the church, centerpieces, flower girl baskets, floral headbands etc) to give them a visual of what we wanted. Some of the flowers were out of season and a bit expensive so they helped us find other flowers that gave the same look and feel we wanted that kept us within our budget. They were also able to give us a mini preview of our centerpieces!
The flowers that they arranged for the wedding day were so so beautiful and FRESH! Although our wedding was in Orange county, they put in so much effort into making sure everything turned out perfect and delivered ON TIME. They also made sure that everything from the ceremony was transferred to the reception so that nothing went to waste. The centerpieces turned out just as we had imagined them as well as the groomsman’s boutonnière and the bridesmaids corsages! People told us that it was the most beautiful wedding that they had ever been too! The flowers were SO uniquely done, the floral arrangements and my bouquet was PERFECT. It was so rustic, vintage and FRESH. I was so happy. Overall we could not have been happier with them!
To get an idea of what type of flowers they did for us, you can check our wedding hashtag #pandb2014 to see what a great job they did for us. Thank you so much for everything, you guys are the best!

I always get my flowers here, from award bouquets to something to brighten up the house. I love the family that runs it. They are so nice and that makes the flowers that much more beautiful. You won’t be disappointed.

These guys make really fantastic arrangements! My friend brought me one that looked like a puppy made of flowers, and it totally brightened my day. So creative!

I’ve always had my Mother’s Day arrangements done at this florist for many many years and when we eloped in Vegas, naturally I had a beautiful white bridal bouquet personally made. I looooved it so much. They always use fresh and beautiful flowers selection that will last gracefully a while. I also love the owner, she always treat me like a family when I see her.
Looking forward to order my sons prom corsages soon, oh boy…

Went here last minute for Mother’s Day. The lady that owned the shop was super busy but made me a bouquet on the spot. Saved Mother’s Day. Prices were really good and service was awesome. Definitely recommend.

Been coming here for a few years :)

I went with my 17 year old nephew to this flower shop today to find some flowers for his formal date this weekend, it was closed at 5:40pm although sign says they’re open until 7pm. I was irritated, we drove by later after visiting another flower shop and they were open, I guess they close the shop to take breaks. We went in, the shop was completely bare, I could literally count on one hand how many arrangements were there. I asked if they sold orchids, the Asian man who I assume is owner told me they only had what was out on display and wouldn’t have any new flowers until the 21^st of this month when their flower designer was back in the country. That’s 8 days from now, who runs a business like that? Just close the doors if you have nothing to offer. Completely disappointed and disgusted with this place

I really had no idea what to expect shopping for flowers for the first time but the people at California & Florist made it completely painless. The staff was super helpful and assisted me in picking out my own unique bouquet. My SO absolutely loved it and I’ll definitely be returning in the future. I don’t know why I waited so long to do this. Soooo worth it!

I’ve never understood why there’s an ampersand in their company name. It doesn’t make sense. «California and Florist» What?
Anyway, that aside, wonderful place to acquire mildly priced roses and bouquets (yes, people, it’s spelled like that and not «bokay»). I’ve hit this place twice a year since high school (10+ years) to get a single rose for my mother on Mother’s day and another rose for her on her birthday. Always great pricing, always courteous and attentive to detail, always the best experience.
I should get around to asking them some day why it’s called California & Florist.

I had a wonderful experience! I wish I had walked in there sooner but now I have found a decent florist in the area. I pre-​ordered an orchid corsage and it was lovely! It had the right amount of balance, not too ornate. It was beautifully arranged and they delivered it to my home the morning of, how cool is that?! Also very reasonably priced!

The people here are super nice and welcoming. The place is very nice and convenient. However, I brought my sister in here to pick a corsage for prom — they only had one design — and either roses or orchids. As nice as they were, we had to leave, my sister is very picky and with them only offering one corsage choice. It wasn’t going to work out.

Family owned and operated. I’ve used Darany for many, many years now. I must say I have never been unsatisfied with her work. These days, I don’t even give her direction. I tell her what I want, what the occasion is, for whom it’s for, and let her create. When I pick it up, it’s always better than I could have imagined, she does quality work and a great price. I first used her to create the corsage and boutineer for my 9^th grade Sweetheart’s Ball; I have never used another florist since. I call her, she remembers me. I walk in, she asks how I’ve been and how my family is. Her son and daughter are nothing but pleasant when they help her out on the big dates. I highly recommend this florist, you won’t be disappointed.

This past weekend, these folks did the flowers for my friend Robin’s wedding. I have to say, they continue to impress. They did a lovely job, truly lovely. The flowers at the altar were gorgeous, and the centerpieces at the reception were lovely AND smelled SO good! WOW!

these are the nicest people i’ve ever met. their flowers are fresh and the variety is almost endless. the prices are reasonable and negotiable. but they do good work so give them the money. it’s very ma & pa like. on the busy holidays their kids come out and help, it’s kinda cute. so need flowers?! this is the place.

Favorite florist! Darnee, the owner, is the best at making beautiful arrangements at the last minute for a very reasonable price! We use her for all the work functions and since she is local the deliveries are for FREEEEEE!!! There have been many occasions when I have forgotten a coworkers birthday and called Darnee at 10 am and she has gotten flowers to us by 11:00 am. How awesome is that??? She remembers me (and most of my office staff by name) and her flowers are beautiful and fresh!

This flower shop is completely family operated. I’ve known this family for awhile now, and help out during special holidays.
There is a wide selection of floral arrangements on display, all freshly made. The mom sits in the back room and makes the arrangements practically as they are being sold. The most typical floral arrangement for Mother’s Day, I think, would be 1 dz. long-​stemmed red roses. And judging from the sign out front, the roses imported from Ecuador! And talking to the shopkeeper, it’s handpicked from the vendor. Any arrangement you had in mind but do not see on display can be made within ten minutes.
So I’ve only helped out twice. And pretty much, they sell quality arrangements over the quantity of arrangements. They refuse to put any unattractive flowers in the arrangement. Maybe I’m being a little biased but in my opinion, that’s quality service.
